Body mass index in young adults: Associations with parental body size and education in the CARDIA Study.

1 Apr 1996

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Associations of parental education, parental body size, and offspring's education with body mass index and 7-year change in body mass index were examined among participants in the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) study.
